Currently browsing - Citizen’s Arrest

Going that extra mile for his community, Douglas Carswell, Conservative MP for Clacton since 2005, has made a citizen’s arrest after apprehending a shoplifter in his local Boots store.

Regarded as one of the brightest and most provocative political thinkers of his generation, and described in The Sunday Times as “one of the energetic young Tory modernisers elected to the Commons in 2005”, it appears as though Douglas’s energy isn’t limited to reforming politics in Westminster.
